Note du spécialiste

"Using this design took care of a great deal for me because I didn't have to design it. So I went on to similar things like the targets, things the mind already knows. That gave me room to work on other levels. For instance, I've always thought of a painting as a surface; painting it in one color made this very clear.. ..A picture ought to be looked at the same way you look at a radiator." (Jasper Johns, Time, May 4, 1959, p. 58)
